Photograph of a group walking along a dirt path lined with green shrubs, banana plants and palms, with a silver SUV parked at left. Five men are visible. At left a bald man in a pale orange-yellow kurta and dhoti walks with a white badge on his chest. Behind him a man in light orange robes follows. In the centre a man in a tan-beige vest over peach robes walks with an orange shawl on his head. Nearer the camera a figure with long dark hair wears a deep orange dhoti and shawl and an orange turban, walking barefoot. To the right a man in a white kurta and white dhoti walks behind, and at far right a bald man in orange robes adjusts his head with one hand. Bright daylight and a red-edged path.

Outdoor photo on a dirt road in a campus setting, with a silver SUV and a silver hatchback parked nearby, water tower and thatched-roof huts in the background. A group of about ten saffron-robed sadhus and white-clad men walks toward the camera. The lead figure on the left wears a long orange robe and a rudraksha mala. Several others wear orange dhotis and orange or saffron turbans, with bearded faces and bare upper bodies or orange shawls. Two men in white kurtas and dhotis walk in the middle, one with an orange cloth over the shoulder. A man in a white shirt and orange dhoti stands at right beside a blue directional sign on a post.

Outdoor scene on a dirt ground near parked vehicles, a white van, a silver car and a dark blue SUV, with a whitewashed wall and trees behind. A man in white kurta with an orange shawl stands at left with his back to the camera. A figure in orange robes and an orange turban stands in the centre-left, hands raised in greeting. A bald man in a beige vest over pale saffron dhoti and a bald man in pale pink robes stand nearby. At right, a bald man in yellow-orange robes and a bearded man in deep orange robes with an orange shawl stand beside an open vehicle door. Four to five people are visible.

Outdoor photograph on a dusty dirt road beside a village building and trees. A man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with long swept-back hair and beaded necklaces raises his right arm and points ahead while smiling, a person by appearance cues (long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style necklaces) but uncertain. Beside him a bald man in saffron robes walks barefoot, and behind them a bare-chested man in white dhoti with a red waistband walks. Around them are men in white shirts and trousers, a uniformed police officer in khaki, a silver SUV with a red beacon, and a parked motorcycle.

Outdoor photo on a dirt path beside a wire fence and a white metal lattice tower. A central figure in saffron-orange robes with an orange turban walks forward, smiling, with an outstretched arm. Above him a multicoloured canopy with blue, red and yellow tassels is held over the path. Behind him a bald man in orange robes stands near a young man in white dhoti and shirt, while a cameraman in white kurta films. To the right, two men in orange robes and light turbans stand beside a white car, one with palms pressed together in greeting. A red-and-white draped table sits at left.

An outdoor photo on a dusty ground beside a silver SUV and a wire fence with green trees behind. Five men stand in conversation. Three wear saffron-orange robes: the bald man on the left wears an orange shawl over a dhoti with maroon borders and holds papers, the man in the middle has a rudraksha mala and an orange robe, and the man on the right wears a plain orange robe with maroon trim. Two older men in plain white dhotis and shirts stand on the right, one holding his hands together. A man in grey trousers and a striped shirt stands at far left holding a paper. Potted plants and a small brick structure are visible on the right.

On the far left, a smiling man in a white shirt and black trousers walks in leather shoes. Next, a man in an orange dhoti and orange head cloth, with an orange shawl, holds a small rectangular booklet in his hand. Beside him, a man in an orange dhoti and orange head cloth walks barefoot in sandals, smiling. On the right, a smiling man bare-chested in a maroon and gold-striped dhoti wears a long rudraksha-style mala over his shoulder. Further back, another man in a white dhoti and shirt and a bare-chested man in a reddish dhoti appear partially.

Four men walk together: a man in white shirt and black trousers at left, two men in saffron-orange robes with orange turbans in the centre, and a man in maroon-and-gold dhoti and shawl at right, gesturing with his hands and wearing a long rudraksha-style mala. Behind them more people in white ritual clothes and orange garments walk among the vehicles. One centre figure holds a small framed picture. No clear appearance-based identification of a person is made.
